HTTP ERROR 500

[crosstra]

Hello. I'm getting the HTTP ERROR 500 error for my website www.crosstrainedmind.com. As far as I can tell, there is no other indication that it is down. I have tried to connect on both IE and Chrome to the same results, as well as tried two different computers, each on a different network. What would you recommend I try next? Thanks.

Check your .htaccess . If you are not familiar with it, try renaming it to htaccess.txt and see if that makes a difference.

It's the default Wordpress information:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

Are the permissions on your public_html (or wherever crosstrainedmind.com points to) 755? Did you try renaming the file to htaccess.txt?

Made both changes. Same error:

Can you try changing your PHP version and seeing if that makes a difference?
cPanel -> Software and Services box -> Select PHP Version
I'm starting to run out of ideas. Also try this hello.php file (in hello.zip) and see if that works.

I was able to access hello.php after uploading it. However, my cPanel looks like the following:



As such, I don't see where to try updating anything.

Ah ha!

I was able to enable logging and got this little gem:

[07-Feb-2018 04:34:33 UTC] PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_start_scraping_edited_file_errors() in /home/crosstra/public_html/wp-settings.php on line 297

I commented out the line and am now checking to see what I might update.

Thanks for all of the help!
